Be attuned in HIS Service!

Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Was reflecting on many experiences we have been through with lessons being learned (still learning) and we are thankful that God is our Teacher and Saviour. There have been struggles in these tough tidbitz times, however, we have been steadily in FAITH working our way through things; albeit it has taken longer than we had hoped. At the same time, He is molding our 'character' into being better people and more 'Christ like.' None of us are perfect and we are grateful for His teachings.

There have been some malicious and false comments on my posts; and I have chosen to let them stand on my blog. The reason - 'By their words, actions, and deeds, they have exposed and convicted themselves.' I am Prayful that one day, 'they' will have an ephifany and invite Christ genuinely into their hearts.

When one invites Christ in, one is changed for evermore. One thinks differently, has more compassion, empathy, kindness towards others. Not as likely to bear false witness. Also, the Fruits of the Spirit are more prevalent; as in 'Discernment.' This is a special Gift given by the Holy Spirit to His Christian Warriors to discern the TRUTH.

This is NO bittidz coincidence that we received this empowering message today! Our dear friend passed on these tidbits of insights from Kenneth Copeland www.kcm.org/

THANK YOU to our friend for sharing these bittids; as well as to Kenneth Copeland.

To quote Kenneth's message.

Leaving the Low Life Behind

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. - Matthew 16:25

The high life...or the low life? God’s kind of life...or the world’s kind of life? You can’t have them both. It’s one or the other. You have to choose.

You may try to put off that choice. You may try to hang on to the low life while reaching out for the high life at the same time, so you can see if it’s something you really want before you give up everything the world has to offer. But, believe me, you’re not that tall!

You’ll never be able to sample the high life for yourself until you’re willing to let go, until you’re willing to take God at His Word and trust Him to take care of you.

What will happen to you when you do that? You’ll start living the kind of life God describes in Psalm 1. You’ll be like “a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; [your] leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever [you] doeth shall prosper” (verse 3).

In West Texas talk that means your roots will go down so deep that no drought can dry you up and no storm can blow you down. No matter what happens in the world around you, you’ll prosper.

The stronger the wind blows, the more you’ll bend in the breeze. Depression and inflation won’t be able to break you. When the rains stop coming and everyone else is withering away, you’ll just keep on thriving and bearing the fruit of the spirit because you’re drawing up nourishment from the riverbed!

That’s what the high life is like and there’s nothing that the world has to offer that can even compare. I know that from experience. Once you dare to let go and trust God...so will you.

Scripture Reading: Matthew 16:13-26

In closing, Alan and I live one day at a time and do our best to keep things simple. Every day is like a brand new canvas! We are joyful and appreciative for the daily Blessings He Provides. We are also thankful for each other, for our health, for our garden, our home, friends, neighbours, and families, and last but not bittid least the 'doggies.'

Here is a picture I recently took one evening, of some Canada Geese flying overhead!
This is also an awesome tidbit Blessing!


Peace and God Bless.
